What is funny is there is an EV version called the Fusilier which looks little a little brother G Wagon. Side by side this is much more imposing... even before a 40mm lift and 35" tires.

I think there is a certain reason why many say it feels a bit like a G-wagon: The guys who did the devellopment of the car was Magna in Graz. That's where the G is develloped and made. They even went up the same testtrack on the Schöckl with the Grenadier. (that's a nautral track on a local small mountain, a G Wagon needs to withstand 2000km on without hickup during testing. And when you see how and where they go on that track it is quite surprising that there aren't parts hanging off after they are done with the G-wagon testdriving.) And if the Billionaire didn't tell them how the experience should feel like to drive, then i would say they went for what they know best... I am from the are and have seen the odd Grenadier while they were still prototypes. And i was quite surprised when one of them went up a twisty mountain road in front of me with what i would consider seriour speed for such a vehicle. As for thomas's question about G wagons in offroad videos: in europe you will find many g-wagon offroading videos, but usually the g-wagons used in the videos are 20-30 years old. They still then aren't cheap, but more affordable for offroaders and still many people tend to go for military surplus ones and they at least a few years back were available at around 16k€. (that's what a safe to drive on the road mil surplus one 30 or 40 years old would goes for, now you can add a bit to that thanks to inflation.)

Where the Suzukis advantage lies is that you can have one to the price of an old G but have a warranty. (Then again, you will brake more things as it isn't as heavily built as a G.)

Hate to make comparisons, but these guys have the OG Top Gear energy, but in a new package - it's fresh, yet familiar and they obviously love cars.

Honestly a great looking truck. Nothing wrong with a nostalgic homage to the Defender. Teething problems aside, this is a great first generation product. I’ll be curious to see how the facelifted version improves upon it.

The lane and speed warnings need to reset to default (on) as required by EU law, so it isn't a bug or bad design. They could propably customize the firmware for North America, but then they would have to make custom firmwares for all regions which would complicate production. It's a true world car and you get the same thing whether you buy it in Europe, America or Japan.

In Spring, TX I couldn’t tell you the last time I saw a G-Wagon that wasn’t being driven by a woman on her way to shop or pick up kids. They’ve proven to be extremely capable in parking lots.

I built one on their configurator with everything I could want and it was $77K. A lot of money. But I’d take one over any of its competitors. Such a cool vehicle.

An off road vehicle review... without going off road. 🤪🤪🤪

I felt so childish with how much seeing toot made me laugh.

I love this thing, thank you whatever the name was. In this digital era where everything is going touch control we need more of analog things.

They look really good in person. As someone who can't stand the look of a G wagon but do like the look of an old defender this is a really cool vehicle. Hopefully they work out the bugs and it becomes popular because I definitely think it has a place in the market.

I would definitely take this over a new Defender. I say this as someone who is not in the market for anything resembling either.

Interesting that they didn't use a Mercedes engine, given that Ineos owns 1/3 of the Merc F1 team

That might be too close to stepping on the G-Wagon’s turf 😛

The vehicle was also partially designed by Magna, the company that works with Mercedes for the G wagon

I love this car. This and the new Land cruiser(and the Lexus one) are really cool looking. I love the interior panels.

The design language of this is the most stunning thing I have seen in a while. It's so futuristic but a specific type of futuristic that I really like. Like a more industrial type of futuristic. The dashboard looks like out of an airplane.

Well it'll certainly be a massive step up from Big Pete if AutoAlex can get one sorted..

@@louissanderson719 yeah shocking right! I agree - they'll try and get one as a long-term press car I reckon rather than buying

The intro is so funny actually 😂👍

I saw one of these yesterday morning in my tiny town in the Pacific Northwest!

DO A COMPARISON BETWEEN THE GRENADIER AND THE LAND CRUISER !! Opt the mid-teir versions please. Off-road capabilities, fuel consumption, turning circle, price, usability (cup holders, storage, rear loading volume, removable rear seats, towing weigh) add-on options. Thanks for the videos guys

Not having ANYTHING except warnings on the gauge cluster is brilliant. You're off road. You don't care about anything except what's in front of you, and whether your car is okay.

Where the nearest Ineos dealer when you need service?

The lcosest to where i live is 15 minutes away, but that doesn't mean everybody has one right around the corner. They have contracts with different dealers and service places, you probably need to look at their homepage to find out.

Pretty exciting to see. Feel like it's pretty rare to see a new company enter an established space and create something worth investing into

There's a BMW dealership near me that sells Ineos and I was genuinely confused as to why Ineos was here. But seeing the Grenadiers when people take them on a test drive gives me the same excitement as a seeing an old Defender.
